Bruges to host EU shale gas summit

11:45 08/10/2013

Bruges will host the 'European Shale Gas Summit' on January 28 and 29 next year, the European Commission’s Community Research and Development Information Service has announced.  The event aims to stimulate discussion among participants en route towards an EU wide regulatory policy on shale gas. This summit will bring together leading politicians, government agencies, regulators, energy economists, technical experts and the senior management of the world’s leading oil & gas companies to discuss the political, economic and technical viability of commercialising Europe’s shale gas reserves and the impact of that commercialisation on Europe’s economies. The event will be differentiated from other conferences on this subject by featuring top politicians from a number of European countries and the EU Commission, which will give oil & gas companies the opportunity to gain real insight into how the shale gas market is likely to develop in Europe. It will also provide a forum in which oil & gas companies can communicate their views on how they would like to see EU shale gas policy develop.
